n Shielded Rotary Encoder
EBE, Leinfelden-Echterdingen, Germany, has developed a rotary encoder
with no mechanical parts. Based on the company's capacitive capaTEC®
technology, the rotary encoder is set by a sliding movement of several
fingers across a cylinder. The operator's fingers serve as individual
influencing factors that can be detected via capacitive measurement. Electrodes
introduced from within are adjusted inside the rotary encoder via
a carrier element. The housing wall remains completely closed and contains no mechanical or
otherwise rotating components. The capacitive rotary encoder is particularly suitable in environments
that need to be regularly cleaned or disinfected.

n Electronic Indicator
Timestrip, Cambridge, UK, has developed an electronic indicator technology
suitable for pack level monitoring with both time and multiple temperature
settings. The neo is a platform for a series of single-use electronic
indicators that can be specified in a wide range of temperatures for both
ascending and descending alerts, as well as for different durations. If any of
the set conditions are breached, a system of flashing LEDs provides clear
information to the user. A standard configuration is available. The design provides monitoring at
three temperatures and shows the cumulative time above a specific temperature level.

n Brushless Slotted Flat Motor
Portescap, West Chester, NY, has released a new brushless slotted flat
motor. The 32ECF motor has a diameter of 32 mm and an overall body
length of 17.6 mm. With an 8-pole design and high-power density in a flat
architecture, the motor utilizes an outer rotor configuration with an air
gap between the coil and magnetic structure that is managed radially.
The motor's electromagnetic circuit has been optimized for higher performance. The motor also
delivers a maximum continuous power of 32 W at 10,000 rpm within a 32 mm flat form factor.

n Structural Adhesive
A structural epoxy from EpoxySet, Woonsocket, RI, is now certified to
ISO-10093-5 for biocompatibility. The EB-316M adhesive is used for
bonding and sealing an extensive variety of substrates including metals,
ceramic, glass, and many engineered plastics. It has low toxicity and low
outgassing while offering excellent electrical insulation. While able to
operate at 150 °C continuously, the adhesive can be cured at room temperature.
It is semi-rigid, making it excellent for thermal cycling, including passing 500 cycles
from -55° to 150 °C. It can also be used in cryogenic applications.

n Collagen Platform
A non-animal-derived collagen platform from Evonik, Essen, Germany,
is available at commercial scale for medical device applications.
Vecollan® is highly pure and reproducible and offers highly tunable
properties. The soluble collagen is produced via fermentation. It features
a triple-helix structure to mimic the properties of natural collagen,
making it suitable for use in medical, pharmaceutical, cell culture,
tissue engineering, and other life science applications. As a nature-identical material, it can
reliably interact with cells and tissues and be readily absorbed or remodeled by the body.

n Embedded SBC
A 3U CompactPCI serial CPU board is available from Duagon, Nuremberg,
Germany. The G28 features the 11th generation Intel® Core™ and
Intel® Xeon® W-11000E series processors/Tiger Lake-H CPUs. With up
to 8 cores and up to 64 GB RAM, the single board computer is well suited
for the medical and industry. Optional 10 Gb Ethernet interfaces allow for high data throughput and
direct connection to the network backbone. Up to 64 GB DDR4 DRAM with ECC is supported.

ONE-PART
PRIMER/ADHESIVE
FOR POLYOLEFINS
Master Bond X18Med is a specially
formulated one component
system for bonding and
priming polyolefinic surfaces. X18Med is most often
used as a primer to promote adhesion of polyolefinic
substrates to other kinds of materials, such as metals,
ceramics, composites, and other kinds of plastics. This
system passes ISO 10993-5 for use in medical devices.
